As a result, I decided to stop for a bit with the hope that Sharman will at some point stop releasing new versions for a while.

lol, i
understand your frustration there,
Scyth 
i remember reading somewhere (i read lots of news articles
especially about kazaa and fasttrack) where this new "update"
release method (doing them more frequently) is a new strategy
for the company to keep interest high in the client by making
it seem like its constantly being
augmented when
[opinion only] it seems most of the updates are new additions
by their third-party partners with new gimmicks to provide them
ad-revenues...[which is fine..just go easy or not at all on spyware
and they'd have much happier and possibly loyal userbase....still
remembering though that is the
"content" that truly
matters not some blind devotion to a particuliar "brandname in
P2P][/opinion]
p.s.
I'd settle for your work on any version...partiuliarly though
on the 1.70 as it allows for
twice as many search results
which can be achieved by doing a normal search with 200 set
as the maximum search results returned....but
did u know....
that if you did the search again or pressed Search again after
doing your initial search it will contact a different or new
supernode and actually add to the results you already had
before?
This then quadruples the search results in esscence giving
you 400 search results returned or whatever the maximum
number of results is (whichever number is highest)
ususally you won't exceed 400 . I personally have seen as
high as 343 results returned on a search...which i feel
is an excellent update to the client...it still needs a better
instant messaging device where the windows does not disappear
after the message is sent...heck if they could somehow achieve
legality with the client they could set up a server to store
the offlinemessages much the way yahoo messenger does
now.
I tell you there is still so much potential and possibility for this
client...lol if they would just [i]hire TankGirl as their
public relations person and use her ideas it would be a terrific
client.
